this wouldn’t work legally because a President has no authority to remove a Supreme Court justice. however the President could instead simply drone strike them. it sounds like i’m being snarky but as a result of the immunity decision this is the actual law.

I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline. “Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet. Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming. Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.”

if you can’t win the argument on its merits, lie about what your argument is, I guess? This seems like a relatively new tactic for the Swiss right; there’s an SVP 10 Million poster on Neue Winti in Wallisellen blaming the traffic jam you’re doubtless sitting in on all the damn foreigners.

AOC for President

Whether or not she runs, Ocasio-Cortez is invoking a feminist politics that Democrats should adopt if they are serious about defeating fascism.

This is the correct response. When this president is dead, a lot of people need to be held to account. This man has to be stopped, and they all know how deranged he is, and they are profiting off of it.

I do not think that "abolish ICE" is unpopular or fringe. I think it is an extremely mainstream view. More people should say it. More people should be calling for it.

The left tried for decades to pass green energy subsidies, passed them, the subsidies worked, and now literally the entire planet's electricity grid is going to convert to solar+battery. It just doesn't feel like "tech" because it mostly produces kinda boring blue collar jobs instead of billionaires

"Nobody questions it anymore" You need to find people who will question it more. I don't even mean this as snark. This is what happens when you're only surrounded by people who think like you: you knowingly become the most toxic version of yourself thinking it's the norm.

An underappreciated point which I think got forgotten from older discourse is that one of the primary reasons ice needs to be shut down and abolished is that they are indistinguishable from random vigilantes. And that is why now we must all act to protect people.

Dems should introduce legislation now defunding ICE and CBP operations in Minnesota, so they have to leave the state. One sentence bill. Demand an immediate vote. Maybe refuse to vote for cloture on any funding bills (or other bills) until a vote. Make the GOP Congress break w/ Trump or own it all.

Have you ever wondered why the car lobby is always happy to respond to environmental claims, but you never hear them talk about obesity or public health? That asymmetry isn’t accidental. It’s a strategic choice about which fights they can survive.

Ist Roger Köppel wegen Desinformation und Propaganda für Russland im Visier der EU? «Eine Sanktionierung von Köppel ist im Bereich des politisch Möglichen», so Prof. Viktor Winkler, Experte für internationales Sanktionsrecht. www.nzz.ch/schweiz/die-...

Russland-Nähe: Die EU belegt Jacques Baud mit Sanktionen. Ist Roger Köppel der Nächste?

Aus der NZZ vom 22.12.2025:
«(…) Der Ex-SVP-Nationalrat ist in diesem Zusammenhang sicher der exponierteste Schweizer. Köppel reiste mehrfach nach Moskau und rief diesen Sommer den Bundesrat dazu auf, die Russland-Sanktionen aufzuheben. Er und seine «Weltwoche» wurden im Frühling von deutschen Medien als «Schweizer Moskau-Connection» bezeichnet, nachdem bekanntgeworden war, dass Inhalte von Russia Today in der «Weltwoche» aufgetaucht waren.»

The most realistic scene in DS9 is when Gul Dukat whined about how the Bajorans never erected a statue in his honor. A prophetic text.

A still from Star Trek Deep Space Nine. Gul Dukat is sitting in Sisko's chair, drinking kanar and acting like he owns the place. (Dukat is a Cardassian, a kind of grey alien with bony ridges on their face and neck.)

Caption: "... is s there a single statue of me on Bajor?"

I see this ignorance about software development history all the time, making people «reinvent» the past constantly or forgetting the lessons we learned. I think universities need to teach «history of software development» or we’re just going in a loop here, unwittingly reenacting past mistakes.

"I have a decent fluency in LLMs, and they have utility, but the absurd degree of over-hype, the way they're being forced on everyone, and the insistence on ignoring the many valid critiques about them make it very difficult to focus on legitimate uses where they might add value."
